I applied online and a recruiter emailed me to schedule time on their calendar. It was a 35 minute phone screen and the conversation felt disrespectful as I was often interrupted during my responses. Before the call was over, I knew I would not be moving to the second step, which was an interview with the hiring manager. I understand it's a competitive market, and Salesforce has the prestige to be selective, but it's not a reason to grill candidates instead of being an active listener. In short, the recruiter lacked basic professionalism. It was a horrific experience and it makes me sad that this person is deciding who is capable of succeeding in a role that is largely dependent on people skills.

Engaging and well run. They were very nice and explained everything. The interview was behavioral and very standard for behavioral interviews and not too hard. Overall good experience and good time.

Processus de recrutement très impersonnel et excessivement formaté.
On a clairement l’impression qu’il faut apprendre à répondre “comme il faut” plutôt que d’être soi-même. Les échanges ressemblent plus à un exercice scolaire qu’à une vraie discussion.
Certaines questions donnent même le sentiment d’être piégeuses, ce qui rend l’expérience assez inconfortable et peu représentative d’un environnement de travail sain.
Très décevant sur l’aspect humain.

Panel interview with current Business development managers. Recruiter provided some really helpful tips prior to the interview. I spoke with some current BDRs there which helped show preparation and reachout skills.
